Team press conference Race 1

- Donington

Cedric Sbirrazzuoli - AF Corse (1st overall) “It wasn’t as easy as it seemed. I started from pole thanks to the good qualifying session yesterday in which we sorted out the brake problem we had on Friday".

The tyres were cold over the opening laps because we didn’t even run a warm-up lap. This meant that I didn’t push too hard and risk making a mistake which could have compromised my race. As the laps went by, the tyres came up to temperature and I pushed on and left the pack behind. I am very pleased. I wanted to repeat the Spa success and I did”.

Matteo Grassi-Swiss Team (2nd Team): “It was a tough start because I am still not that comfortable in the car. Then the car ahead of me started losing fuel and I had some breathing problems. In the end it turned out okay and I am pleased with second place”.

Renato Benusiglio (3nd Team): “I would like to thank everyone for this opportunity; I am really happy to be here at Donington. I am a gentleman driver and , for me, it is all enjoyable. I would like to thank Maserati for their splendid organisation”.
